Educational Resources With a Super Bowl Theme

The Super Bowl is a just a little more than a week away. And while this year’s Super Bowl won’t have the Patriots or Tom Brady in it, I’ll still be watching. I’m guessing that my American readers have a student or two interested in the game. Try one of the following resources to turn your students’ enthusiasm for the Super Bowl into a lesson.

Practical Money Skills hosts a series of eight online games designed to teach students some money management skills. One of the games that is timely considering that the Super Bowl is just a few days away is Financial Football. Financial Football has students answer questions about budgets, savings, and spending to move their football teams down the field against another team. The games use real NFL team logos. 
Perhaps you have students who are new to the game of American football and want to know more about it. Or perhaps you want to learn the basics of the game so that you can enjoy the game with your students. If so, take a look at the NFL’s Beginner’s Guide to American Football
One of the dangers of playing football is the risk of head injuries. TED-Ed has a good lesson that explains what happens to your brain when you get a concussion.

On the topic of concussions, Microsoft’s Hacking STEM website has detailed directions for creating concussion simulations and recording data from those simulations.

The Superb Owl is a cute video about owls. The video presents interesting facts about four types of owls. The whole four minute video is presented as if it is an NFL pre-game show.
